I was trying to think of jokes about redundancy
And I realised I don't know any. DO you?

Alt: are there any subjects you can think of about which there are not any jokes?

AltAlt: if we (all the other countries) all got together could we Nuke America back into the stone age? I think this might be the safest course for all concerned.

alt: this is like googlewhacking
"perambulating ostriches". there are no jokes about this particular niche interest of mine.

and if there are, i'm just going to bury my head in the sand about them.

Thanks for trying.
I know it's a weak effort, I'm hoping to get stomped frankly.

None that spring to mind.
All I can think of is the line from The Rutles about the man who was such a snob that he wore swimming trunks in the bath to prevent him having to look down upon the unemployed.

Alt: No.

AltAlt: No.

Hope this helps.

I've just made up a shit joke about redundancy, if it helps.
David Attenborough is teaching a young boy about ant colonies. He says:
"You see that huge ant in the middle, with all the other ants bringing it food? That's the queen ant. The ants who are carrying the food into the colony, they're the worker ants. Those ones standing guard at the entrance to the colony, fighting off predators, those are soldier ants."

The little boy points to a sad looking ant sitting off by itself doing nothing.

"What sort of ant is that, Mr Attenborough?" He asks.

"He's not needed by the others," says David, "he's redundANT."

I think we all saw that one coming a mile off, yes?

EDIT: okay, it's shit. But I *did* make that proviso before I started, so if you read all the way to the end, you've only yourself to blame.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to have a wee cry.

Old joke, tenuous connection...
At the end of a tiny deserted bar is a huge scouse bloke - 6ft 5in tall and 350lbs. He's having a few beers when a short, well dressed and obviously gay man walks in and sits beside him. After 3 or 4 beers, the queer fella finally plucks up the courage to say something to the big Liverpudlian. Leaning over, he cups his huge ear: "Do you want a blow job?" he whispers. At this, the massive Merseysider leaps up with fire in his eyes and smacks the man in the face. Knocking him off the stool, he proceeds to beat him all the way out of the bar. Finally he leaves him, badly bruised, in the car park and returns to his seat as if nothing had happened. Amazed the bartender quickly brings over another beer. "I've never seen you react like that" he says. "Just what did he say to you?" "I'm not sure" the big scouser replies. "Something about a job."
